Even if I will die tomorrow, the time that I spent reading your visual novel was well spent. This is sad, but kind fiction. 

The lesson that I learned: it's worth to miss out everything else if you're doing a thing that you love. So don't try to not miss out things (you will anyway), try to find a thing that you will love, something that would be well worth price of missing out all other things.

Thank you for the beautiful comment! I hope you live a long time. Everyone has a different path in life so I know the "lesson" of this game is not going to apply to everyone, but it's something I continue to experience over and over in my own life. So I wanted to share it. :) I'm glad the message resonated with you as well!

And one more thing. It happend to me, that the demon in this story looks like allegorical portrayal of ... mathematics. Both are ancient, eternal and from beyond this world (abstractions and concepts don't exist in our world), both can look scary, both require to be approached in thoughtful and careful way in order to communicate with them and even when they answer they are very laconic and every their "word" has weight. By systematically asking them both will, piece by piece, reveal you about the world beyond our world. And in both cases they know so much, that you will never learn all in your lifetime.

Thus we can view it as story of a woman who found joy and solace in becoming an amauter mathematician. Who decided to spend her limited time on Earth to explore eternal world of mathematics, rather than experience ephemeral things of our ever-changing mortal world.

I've just downloaded the game and hope to play it for the first time tomorrow (it's quite late here), so I can't yet speak to how I feel about the game, but reading this comment actually just made me realize I like mathematics. I've spent most of my life complaining about math and saying I hated it, but your comment and my recent interest in chaos theory and fractals have made me realize that math is exactly my thing, I just haven't really understood what it was outside of school learning, so thank you!
